Add the tomatoes and beans, and season with salt and pepper. Reduce the heat so the chili is gently simmering and cook, covered, until the chili is thick, about 1 1/2 hours. Stirring occasionally. If chili becomes too thick as it cooks, add more stock.

Adjust seasonings if necessary and ladle into bowls and top with the remaining scallions and suggested toppings if desired.

Serves 6 to 8

ENJOY!!

I was so curious about your recipe when you posted the title in the forum. There is a wing place near me that is called Kickin' Chicken so I wondered if it was a Buffalo style. Glad to see it is kickin' from the peppers and spices. Bring on the heat!
